The Wish for an alteration or- moth& , cation of, that sytern. For a long time they have endeavored to a complish that object, but without ,success. Before the late election, Bishop Hughes, who has always a and forth es the prominent and un wavering advocate for the Proposed change alluded to, determined •th r t the Common School Question should he a tesfq iestion at the coming election, so far as Catholic v tea were concerned. A- public ii meeting was co! ed at the Carrot House in New • York. It was nuerously attended, and composed of the mist itidamm ble - materials. The meeting was duly n - ganizeil. On the platforms were several, if not all, the Catlio is Clergymen of that city. Bish e• opt Hughes was likewuns present. In an exciting • speech, lie stated die objects of the meeting, and allu ded to the unequal bearing of the CoMmon, School System on the Ctheliee, as a religious body. He stated that the timb l was come for action, andthat the only way i they could Again a redress of the evil corn - ;do i med of, was to vote for only such candidates for the Legisbiture as stood pledged to carry out their views.

It was long past meridian, and there was every prospect of tight overtaking-us on the modntaine. The Weather,, too, commenced to as• aurae a threatening aspect, and the cold was intense in the extreme. To our horror and consternation, after we left Fogely's, a regular, old fashioned snow storm set in. The flakes of snow weir, as large as pancakes, and came down in a steady and never en ding stream. The .road was execrably bad, and to add to the comforts of our situation, a port of the 41xine: of our waggon gave way, and we were for ced to lose two good hours to repair damages, ulna aided and alone," regardless of the "pelting and piti less stt4m." At a late hour, cold, wet, miserable, Chop-fallen, hungry, and thirsty, we reached Shame. kin. Mine host of the Shamokin Inn, Mr. - kram, was on the steps of his house when we arrived. He promptly escorted us to a warm room, where we en joyed the combined comforts of light and beat with a gusto seldom experienced. Supper was shortly an nounced by a buxom little creature, with a.brace of sparkling black ey, a, that might have mehed an icicle; but, alas tliat we should say it, her charms were lost) in the contemplation of the substantial repast before .us. Coffee anif sausages !it is too true. After any. per, we,received a polite imitation from*Mr. Wood, the Agent of the 'Shamokin Coal and Xron Coral any, to spend the evening with him at his lodg ings, which we gladly accepted. From the infin elation we obtained from Mr. W., and one or two other gentlemen, during our short soj Nirn in the town, we are enuble,j to give the following particu lars of Shamokin. Shamokin as all the world knows—and if they .don't, they should---.s hicand in Noithundierland county, about nineteen miles, or then away. from the winding and beautiful Sti-mietiarsish, It is a thriving, healthy little town, of some eighty or a hundred houses, which contain about six hundred souls, and is indebted fur its t aistence, as it s ill be for iii ultimate prosrlerity and wealth, to its coal anil iron ore. A large'portion of the town lots, and near ly all the coal land in the - neighborhood, is owned hs the Shamokin Coal and 'lron Company. This Company, as the name imports, is a union of two eompanies. The charter was. granted in March, 1840, end expires in 1857. The Capital is $300,- 000. The united companies own about 1,400 acres of:coal and iron land, 750 of which are situated in Columbia county, and the balance in Northumber land, on the line of the Danville and Pottsville Railroad. On this tract, there are twelve excellent veins of coal running principally a distance of thre e hundred and twenty rods through the tract, varying in thickness from five_feet up to eleven, and in ele vation from two hundred to four hundred feet above the water level. There is one vein, indeed, sixty feet thick, but we do not think it can be worked to advantage; besides, the coal from this vein is bony, and of an inferior - quality, thetwelve veins, on ly four are :partially worked. A fifth--:the vein"—has been opened for about one hundred yordsi The flat-vein is a Tell ash -vein, and the only one in the Shamokin region. • The Company have many advantages in getting their coal to the distrihutina place—Runtinry, via the Danville and Pottsville Railroad. The railroad cuts the Company's veins at right angles. The schutes are placed at the mouth of the drifts from which the cars are loaded. The consequence of this proximity to the rail road, renders the use of horse power about the mines entirely unnecressary. The Railroad Company fir4sll the cars in which the coal is car ried,-for three cents a ton, per mile, including every expense. • The wharf of the Company at Sunbury is not much larger than those of many private oper ators of Pottsville or Schuslkill Haven. About four boats, of 50 tons burthen rah, csn be loaded per day. The distance from Sunbury to - Havre de Grace on the Chesapeake Bay, by Canal, is 126 miles. lockage 418 feet, overcome by 52 locks. The toll on the Pennsylvania Canal is half a cent per ton of two thousand pounds, per mile. On the Basque hannah and Tido Water the same. The cost of freight tram Sunbury to Havre de Grace Will, range, from $1,25 t0:2,25 ; toll, sixty three cents per neft ton. The cost of mining is much the same as in the other anthracite regions of thin state. The Compa ny will not be able to send to market this season more than about 22,000 tons-of coal, and but little of this =mint will find its way to the sea board, as it will be nearly all consumed in Danville and the numerous flourishing villages along the banks of the Susquehannah. Mr. Woad, the gentleman previous ly alludeilito, informed us that 0 there was a demand, they could easily send two hundred thousand tons to market in a season. We think he is mistaken. The present facilities of transportation, to`say noth ing, of the many difficulties necessary to be encoun tered in mining on an extensive scale, and which difficulties the miners of the Sharnolun region have never yet experienced, would ever prevent the Sha mokin Company from sending such a large amount of coal to Market The Shamokin Coal & Iron Company have made the necessary preparations for building two large anthracite furnaces and a rolling mill. One of the furnaces iselready finished, and will be 6-blown in" in the course of a few day a. The exterior of this furnace is beautiful and imposing in the ex treme,from its dimentions and the thorough and workmanlike manner in which the whole building is finished. It was built under the superintendence of Mr. Trego, a gentleman eminently qualified for the reaponsib!e task. The interior arrangements of the furnace as most admirable, far superior to any similar establish. merit in the state, irwe except the Valley Furnace of Messrs. Taylor dc - Co. 'The dimensions, &c. of the Shamokin Furnace-are as follows. From hearth to tunnel head 423 feet-40 feet base—l 2 feet across the boshes-6 'feet across the tunnel head. There are three charging doors. The , casting house is 48 by 45 feet. There are two nets of heaters, sufficient for two furnaces. The engines were built in Bos ton, for the Farrensville Iron Works—.ane of the most magnificent bubbles of the, da,x—at an expense of $40.000. They are 'vertical engines and beautifully finished. The Shamokin Company purchased theni fir the low price of $.3,000! They are ISO horse power. 7 feet stroke. There are • ten boilers, ches in diameter, and thirty feet long. The engine house is 60 by 30 feet ; the boiler house, 60 by 11 , §. The engine stack is 70 feet high, and 56 by 36 feet inside, in the clear, to the top. It is expected dial the furnace will yield about - ten ions of iron pet day. The ore' to be used for the present a ill s be from Moments Ridge. Danville ; the Company having made an advantageous arrangement with Biddle, Chambers & Co. of Danville. for a large supply. If we mistake not, the arrangement is, the Company to finnish a ton of coal for ton of iron ore;. the 'and ore to be delivered at Sunbury. The Com pany have several extensivo.iron veins, the ore of superiOr quality, in Union county..opposite &Om ry, which they intend working,, We do not think the Company will long depeed on their neighbors for, a supply of iron ore, a. there is every indication of a suffieleoci of ore at' borne, sail likewise of iima . - stone: - Shainokin is &singular - idatit feinany . respeits: With the exception of the minth, : everylnan in that flourishing town owns the houise he lives in - . 'This speaks well for the industry and prudence'of the ci tizens of Shamokin, or the cheapness of building and seal .eitale in that meridian. There is not a Dwyer, a cltrgyman, or a blacksmith in Shamokin. The annun c iation of this fact, we presume, will bring the remedy. We might cite other instances toshow the singularity of Shamokin, but enough has been shown to prove that it is not only a singular place, but it is destineitio become ono of the most flourish ing end wealthy towns in this state. In eighteen months, we predict the population OfElhamokm will be over 1100. We stated that on the Nth ull, we left Pottsville far Shamokin. How or when we came back, we leave to the imagination of our readers. 1317DLIVE AND nicotays.--Ocif frienirNiChols —"Buffalo Nicbole—has been perpetrating some touching lines to Miss What's•her•name.
